Time Travel: Age of Discovery

The middle-aged warrior took the mysterious fruit into his arms and immediately took out a dagger from his sleeve.

The leader also drew a pitch-black blade from his waist, and the people behind him followed suit, taking out their weapons. Many of them smiled and stared at the middle-aged man with cold eyes.

As a high-ranking member of the "Shadow" organization, this middle-aged man was deeply favored by the leader, which aroused the jealousy of everyone over time. The falling out at this moment was exactly what they wanted.

However, the middle-aged man was not nervous at all when facing a group of enemies, and looked calm.

Not far away, on a big tree.

Teya squatted on the branch, pushed aside the leaves with his right hand, and peeked at what was happening below.

He listened to every word of the conversation between the middle-aged man and the leader.

It turned out that the sudden appearance of the strange woman made Teya confused. Although he didn't know why the middle-aged man suddenly disappeared, Teya quickly made a plan.

Pretend to leave and then strike back.

Sure enough, Teya discovered the secret of the middle-aged man. He was actually a devil fruit user, and it was the superhuman imitation fruit that Teya knew.

Seeing the woman on the ground suddenly turn into a middle-aged man, Teya couldn't help but marvel at it.

He could only sigh - wonderful, it really is worthy of being a devil fruit.

The subsequent events also made Teya feel deeply moved. This pirate world was actually playing out like Infernal Affairs.

The middle-aged man and the so-called leader, as well as the "shadow" and the black market, all seem to exist for their own interests. Teya feels like an outsider, but is forcibly involved.

Teya was thinking about his next move when something unexpected happened.

"kill."

When the leader waved his hand to signal his men to attack, he suddenly heard a low voice behind him.

The leader suddenly felt a sharp pain in his waist and breathing became difficult.

Looking down, he saw the dagger pierced into his waist and abdomen, blood oozing out of the wound, and the dagger was slowly pulled out.

The leader endured the pain, turned around and swung his knife, but failed to hit the attacker.

"Sixteen...you actually..."

Seeing the hideous smile of the cloaked young man, the leader was furious, but could not bear the severe pain.

He knew very well that Sixteen must have poisoned the dagger, which was his usual trick.

Sixteen came to the middle-aged man, and the two of them high-fived, their meaning was self-evident.

The leader had never expected that Fifteen and Sixteen were acting out a play from beginning to end.

"I've treated you well, why... treat me like this?"

"Hmph, you've been in that high position for too long. It's time to step down."

At this time, other senior officials raised their weapons and pointed them at the leader, leaving him isolated and helpless.

He laughed in anger, knowing that he was powerless to change the situation.

The mistake is the coexistence of trust and doubt.

The middle-aged man seemed to have no intention of delaying and ordered everyone to take action immediately to put an end to him.

At this point, Teya understood that everything was carefully planned by the middle-aged man. He set up the trap and borrowed the power of others. He was truly a man who endured humiliation and bore heavy burdens.

Teya considers whether to fight them and take back the mysterious fruit.

But he thought that some things might only happen by chance, such as the surgery fruit. Teya knew that it belonged to Luo. If he took it back or ignored it at this moment, what would be Luo's fate?

After repeated weighing, Teya decided to wait and see.

The chief was not a good person, he was a slave trader, and Teya hated him deeply.

At this moment, the leader is covered in wounds, but is still trying to hold on. It must be bitter for his former subordinates to turn against him.

However, six people dressed in black and red clothes suddenly appeared, surrounded the leader and blocked the attacks of others.

The leader wore a black and red mask and held two swords, while the others all wore black masks and clothes.

"Are you the 'Blood Debt' organization on the black market?"

The middle-aged man cried out in surprise. He had not expected that the black market would arrive so quickly, and the visitor was from the headquarters.

"Take back the fruits, leaving no one behind."

The man in the black and red mask gave the order, and everyone immediately broke into a melee.

The leader was escorted by a man in a black and red mask, but he was not killed because his life still needed to be spared and he was taken back to the headquarters for personal interrogation.

At this time, on an island in the Grand Line.

In the palace on the top of the mountain, a burly man stood in front of the huge window, and another man was sitting on the sofa with a cigar in his mouth. The two figures were hidden in the dark.

"'Blood Debt' has been dispatched, 'Shadow' is here this time, humph!"

"The Operation Fruit was auctioned off by the people of Water Sky without our knowledge. How audacious! Using Shadow to eliminate them, and then eliminating Shadow at the same time, how clever."

"Haha. I wonder if the Five Elders are satisfied with this gift of the Operation Fruit."

……

The situation is changing rapidly.

The "Blood Debt" organization consists of only six people, and the leader with the black and red mask has not taken any action.

However, his strength was far superior to that of "Shadow", and he could almost fight three of them alone. The middle-aged man's face gradually became ugly.

He was about to achieve his goal, but this group of people intervened. How could this not give him a headache?

Teya, who was watching the battle secretly, fell into deep thought.

What does this mean? One wave has not yet subsided, another wave rises?

Teya originally wanted to wait until the middle-aged man dealt with the leader before settling old scores and finding out their origins, but now that this group of people suddenly appeared, Teya could only wait and see.

Teya believed that if he showed up rashly at this time, he might become the target of public criticism.

It is better to wait and see and wait for the opportunity to act.

Teya has roughly sorted out the information, but still feels that there must be someone behind this group of people who is manipulating the overall situation.

Although he had no intention of uprooting the trees, as he was outnumbered after all, he would do his best to do what he could.

For Teya, the most important reason and the reason why he is reluctant to leave is still the surgical fruit, and its whereabouts may affect the development of subsequent plots.

Teya couldn't leave just like that, even though he had obtained an Animal-type Devil Fruit.

Witnessing the fierce battle between the two sides, Teya knew at a glance that although the middle-aged man's side had more people and more power, they were inferior to the other side in strength and had already lost the upper hand...
